My experience with Tanya was absolutely lovely. Tanya is kind-spirited and gentle, making her approachable and easy to talk to. She came to all the prenatal appointments prepared and ready to listen and learn about my family and needs for my unmedicated delivery. Her attentiveness to my birth plan and needs paid off during my labor and I'm so grateful to her for that. She endured 24 hours of labor with me and never left my side for more than a food/bathroom break; she worked with the midwives to help my labor progress by offering different positions, she ensured my wishes and birth plan were respected, and she guided my husband in helping me with pain relief. She also was consistent with applying counter pressure throughout nearly the entire labor and I couldn't have made it through without that. I ended up with a successful VBAC delivery after a total of 34 hours of labor. 

Tanya offered to take photos during my labor and was able to capture some beautiful moments while being mindful of the flash and noises the camera made. I never knew when she was taking photos and the end results were so special to me. 

If Tanya had not been there, me and my husband agree that it would have been a very different experience. We would have felt so lost without her guidance and support. We hope she's available for our next baby's delivery!

My personal experience with Tanya as my doula could not have been any more perfect. She did such a fantastic job being my voice at the hospital, making sure to ask questions that I wouldn't have even thought to ask, explaining things to me when I seemed confused or out of it. She made the atmosphere so calm even when I was struggling really bad at times and she did everything in her power to ease my mind. I could not have asked for a more perfect person to be my doula! If my husband and I ever do decide to have another baby she is 100% my first choice to be with me every step of the way!
